His gigs in the Hudson River Valley caught the ear of Morrison, who was living at the time in Woodstock. After auditioning for Morrison in the spring of 1969, Platania began his long association with the rock legend, capturing ears with his signature guitar work on Morrison's commercial breakthrough with the album Moondance and hit single of the same name.
As Platania tells it, Morrison helped refine and refocus his musical approach to serving the song as a player from the perspective of a songwriter. "He was the one who taught me that." Platania's guitar work can be heard on four other Morrison studio albums and the live release It's Too Late To Stop Now. He also co-wrote two songs on Philosopher's Stone and in 2006 rejoined Morrison's band for the Pay The Devil world tour.

Too bad there aren't more videos of HeadSoup like this one with the full line up. These guys can play...I've seen them live many times. Catch them if they come to your town.

This is a really cool Live version of Van's classic tune. Love the vocals and the band and what more needs to be said about John Platania the original guitarist on the original track. Keep it up guys.
